He was Ji Xiu'e's precious son, her only one. With him injured so badly, how could anyone rest?
Ji Lianhuai and Ji Liantang were both dragged from their warm beds. Ji Xiu'e ordered them to take Huang Juncai to the clinic in town, but in the dead of night, what clinic would even be open?
Neither man was willing to go, but knowing Ji Xiu'e's temper, they didn't dare refuse.
In the end, it was Ji Qingshan who calmed her down, telling the two men to first fetch the traveling doctor from the neighboring village to take a look.
If it turned out to be nothing, that would be for the best. But if the injuries were serious, it would be safer to have them treated before making the trip to town.
After the two men reluctantly shuffled out the door, Ji Xiu'e entered the west room of the main hall, her face grim.
